Even though we're still months ahead of the Frankfurt International Motor Show, Britain's Autocar magazine has learned that Ferrari will take the wraps off its F430 replacement. Expected to be named F450, the new V8 Prancing Horse is said to be for the most part new, with only a minor components in the chassis or bodywork coming from the current F430 that was introduced back in 2004.
Autocar claims that the F450 will be the first model to come out of the Maranello factory to feature eco-friendly green materials and several weight reduction measures that were first seen on the firm's 2007 Mille Chili eco-concept that is seen in our image gallery.
Ferrari has not disclosed any information of the F450's engine, but it is said that the sportscar will benefit from a updated version of the F430's V8 with an enlarged capacity of 4.5-liters delivering somewhere north of 500-horsepower.
